NovelEnglish"I'm safe, Avery." Elliot's deep voice came through the phone. "About this morning—" "Let's talk when we meet." Avery's voice was trembling uncontrollably. "It's a good thing you're alright. You almost scared me to death, Elliot." Elliot heard the hurt in her voice and said,” Everything's alright now. I'm coming to see you now." After the call ended, Avery lifted her hand and wiped her tears away.

Avery looked up at him with teary eyes and asked, "Why weren't you worried that something would happen to him? You seemed really composed the entire time." The bodyguard chuckled bitterly and said,” This was nothing. There've been countless assassination attempts on Mr. Foster, and many of them were far more dangerous than this. Since you've decided to stay with him, then you'd better prepare yourself for assassination attempts, too." Avery was taken aback.
The bodyguard was also taken aback when he saw the silent shock on her face.
"Could | have scared Avery into breaking up with Elliot? "On second thought, she isn't worthy of Elliot if she can't handle this much trouble, "thought the bodyguard.
"Not only would your life be in danger, but your children’s lives would also be in danger, too. You've read the news, right? I'm sure | don't have to tell you the stories about the countless children of wealthy families who were abducted, right?" said the bodyguard.

When Elliot arrived at the bottom of the mountain, he saw Avery's pale expression. It seemed like she had not gotten over what just happened.
"You got quite a fright this morning, didn't you?" He pulled her slender body into his arms. "I was afraid that they would use you to blackmail me. I'd act on impulse if that happened.” Avery nodded and asked, "Do you get assassination attempts often, Elliot?" "Why are you asking something like that so suddenly? This wasn't an assassination attempt. Goldstein was deluded into wanting to blow up everyone in the villa. If that happened, then Aryadelle would undergo a complete change. He thought that he would be able to control the country's economy when that happens, but it was a ridiculously idiotic idea!" "Why would he think of something this terrifying?" "He's an idiot. Someone else was controlling him behind the scenes." "Who?" Avery felt a shiver run down her spine.
"He refused to give me a name. All he said was that it was someone close to me. I'll look into it when | get back." Elliot took Avery's h;e";YLS= and helped her into the car. "Let's head home for now. Do you still remember what we talked about last night? "Did we do anything else apart from sleep last night?" Elliot gazed deeply at Avery and said,” You're still upset about this morning." "Act all you want, but why did you have to have your hand around that woman?" Avery was settling the earlier score. "Do you think you're the only one who can act? I'm a pretty good actress myself. If you told me there was danger and asked me to pretend to get into a fight with you, | probably would've been able to give a much more entertaining performance. Did you really have to use that woman to provoke me?" Seeing her upset, Elliot lowered his head and explained, "I was frantic at the time. | was worried that you'd get dragged into things and | wanted to get you out of there as soon as possible. | wasn't thinking straight.” Avery accepted his explanation. "Don't do it again. If you ever hold another woman again, then you're never touching me again.
Elliot wrapped his arm around her waist and swore, "l won't." "Ugh, my head hurts. | don't know how to tell the kids when we get back." Avery rested her head against Elliot's shoulder. " Layla shouldn't be a problem. She's always liked you. Hayden, on the other hand..." "I don't know what to do either. | can swallow my pride and make up with you after | make you mad, but Hayden despises me too much," Elliot said. "You reap what you sow." After a moment's silence, he said, "He probably won't stop us from remarrying.” "I know. He respects me, but that's precisely why this is hard on me." Avery closed her eyes. "I'm a little dizzy. I'm going to take a nap." "Alright." Back in Avonsville, the news of Elliot Foster and Avery Tate's experience in Mount Sierra spread like wildfire the moment Avery had called Chad for help.
